Ishant injured was good for Mohit

IPL performance as expected.

It’s time every bowler steps up and performs: Ishant India’s seniormost pacer Ishant Sharma does not want to put too much burden on himself thinking about leading a young attack but at the same time did not forget to mention that “it’s time” that “every bowler steps up“. On being asked about his role as the leader of bowling group, Ishant said,”Maybe now is the time that everyone should step up and say to himself that I have got the responsibility for the country instead of me telling them about their roles. I think it is important that you learn yourself about your own bowling.” But he does speak to the young bowlers. “I do talk to [the likes of Umesh Yadav, Varun Aaron] about bowling. Maybe I have played more matches than them but everyone is in the same age-group. It will be good for them.” Ishant’s career has been plagued by injuries which led to him missing the ICC Cricket World Cup but he is ready to move on from that episode. “The injury was disappointing for me and now I need to move on in life and think what’s next.” The hero of India’s Test victory against England at Lord’s last year, Ishant said that the key was to bowl to right areas. “We have a ball in hand — whether we are bowling on the turf or on marble, you need to bowl in the right areas. we have plans for every player and we need to execute it.” Ishant was also vocal in throwing his weight behind Team Director Ravi Shastri, who he thinks has done a great job. “You can’t really say we don’t have a coach because we have Ravi bhai. He is the one who is going to [take all the decisions]. Nowadays, we have specialist coaches for batting, bowling and feidling, so all you need to do is to set up a certain plan for a certain batsman. In Bangladesh we need patience. It will be tough for fast bowlers,” the lanky speedster said. http://www.thehindu.com/sport/cricket/its-time-every-bowler-steps-up-and-performs-ishant-sharma/article7291744.ece

Great career stats - only in Dhoni's clique could you get away with such awfulness and entitlement:

The lanky fast bowler's career has been plagued with injuries but each time he has recovered and made a strong comeback. Till now, he has 187 wickets from 61 Test matches and 106 scalps in 76 One-Day Internationals (ODIs). Asked about it, he said: "It shows how tough I am. I have been through such a phase like I have been injured and get dropped from the side made it till the World Cup and then got injured again. "It all depends on how mentally tough I am and what do I want to do in life. It is important you set up a goal believe in yourself and do well for the country." http://sports.ndtv.com/bangladesh-vs-india-2015/news/243474-ishant-sharma-says-surface-doesn-t-matter-finding-right-spot-is-key-to-success

Shami has to get fit soon

[CG]

He has done some work on his bowling .his seam is upright and he is maintaining pace ,Actually was quickest bowler of the match and is not falling over.lets see

[Vijy]

His batting may prove to be more useful than his bowling.

[rahulrulezz]

This guy is the most pathetic bowler ever to play 60 plus test matches

[Vijy]

^ True.

[rkt.india]

Shami has to get fit soon

Shami has a worse ER and similar average to Ishant. If you exclude his first tests at Eden against WI, it will be worst.

[rkt.india]

Dont know if they even work on finding reverse swing because this is the only way you can be successful as a fast bowler in SC conditions. They kept bowling bouncers for reasons only know to them.

It tells you more about our state of fast bowling than anything else.

I don't think there are any capable exponents of this art in India.
